There’s also a mini-series/movie of this book from 2008 starring David Jason as Rincewind and Sean Astin as Twoflower. The story revolves around a pretty useless wizard Rincewind who offers his services as a guide to a very eccentric tourist named Twoflower (what kind of name is that, by the way-though I probably shouldn’t say that, since the majority of Discworld characters have weird names) who is determined to experience every interesting thing the Discworld can offer (including watching a bar fight and seeing a dragon who then chases them) along with his magical bag. It was originally published 1983 and is Pratchett’s first full published book. This book is the first book of Pratchett’s infamous fantasy series Discworld, and the third book I have read in this series (following Soul Music and Guards! Guards!).
